Grantville Gazette II edited by Eric Flint

I thought Grantville Gazette II didn't have as many fun stories as Gazettes I or III. Weber's The Company Men was a lot of fun, and so was Clark's alchemical style factual treatise on zinc. Several other stories were quite good. I have friends with firsthand experience in doing medical training and practice in countries without the hygiene/science beliefs we are used to, and thought Ewings's story on the problems of cross cultural medical training had an excellent and realistic grasp of the likely situation. But as an actual story it was a bit too long without a clear climax.
